The so-called "Fish Sheep Controversy" had lasted almost a month of intense chart competition, constantly shifting up and down.

Countless people were watching the final outcome, you could say they were on tenterhooks.

Everyone had finally reached the end of the month, but thought that the two songs would fairly decide the winner—

But then, official intervention came out of the blue!

Xian Yu and Yang Zhongming's equilibrium was instantly shattered!

The scales of victory were completely tipped towards Yang Zhongming!

At this moment.

Countless individuals wanted to vomit blood in frustration:

"What the heck?"

"Why is there suddenly some official intervention?"

"This is no longer fun."

"Official promotion, the deadliest move!"

"Who can withstand the heat when it's boosted by the authorities..."

"Last time when watching 'Our Song', I just wanted to know the exact number of votes for these two, but the program team considered them tied."

"I thought the season chart couldn't continue to be a tie, there must be a result. Geez, the official suddenly got involved."

"All I wanted was to see Fish Papa and Father Yang outdo each other. Why is this so hard?"

"Father Yang won, but in this case, Xian Yu didn't lose."

"..."

There's a victor now.

But this victory is not what everyone wanted to see, so everyone was so frustrated.

At this moment.

Suddenly, someone slapped their forehead, remembering something from the past.

"Do you remember how Xian Yu got the champion song during the first duel between Fish Papa and Fei Yang?"

"Seems like, it was also officially backed?"

"If it wasn't for the official backing, Fei Yang should have won the first encounter with Xian Yu; but as soon as the authorities intervened, Xian Yu immediately overtook Fei Yang and took the first place."

"If I remember correctly, that song was 'Change Yourself' by Chen Zhiyu."

"At that time, the authorities promoted the song saying that the content of 'Change Yourself' was a call for unity in all states of Blue Star, advising everyone not to have alienation and bitterness."

"This time, Father Yang also used the same theme, calling for the unity of all the states in the Blue Star."

"Well, this is..."

"..."

The internet users were left in a state of laughter and tears.

Every cause has an effect.

Fate, is indeed wonderful beyond words.

The initial official intervention gave Xian Yu a boost and forcibly placed Fei Yang in second place.

That time, Xian Yu was considered extremely lucky.

Who would have thought that this time, during Xian Yu's duel with Yang Zhongming, the officials would intervene for the same reason again, but the beneficiary was not Xian Yu anymore, but his opponent Yang Zhongming.

"Does every official gift come with a price tag in the dark?"

"Look up, no one is spared by the heavens."

"Never thought Xian Yu would have this day."

"Fei Yang: Sweet revenge!"

"So the authorities' thought process is so long-term, this is too fair."

"Help Xian Yu once, so they should help Xian Yu's opponent once too?"

"Well, we can look forward to the third duel between Fish Papa and Father Yang."

"This time, it's too absurd."

"..."

The internet users, while joking around, couldn't help but laugh and sigh. They didn't know how to complain anymore.

What could they complain about?

Obviously, the official move was not deliberate.

Blue Star's big merger is the main theme, and it just happens to be the end of the year, with Han Continent about to join the merger.

In such circumstances, the promotion of the song "Blue Star" is also for the benefit of the people.

The funny thing is, during Yang Zhongming's Battle of the Gods, he just happened to write a theme song that the authorities could promote.

"Wait a minute."

At this moment, someone had a sudden realization:

"The confrontation between Fish Papa and Yang Zhongming, which was described as the battle between Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen, clearly refers to Xian Yu as Sun Wukong, because Xian Yu is the screenwriter of 'Journey to the West'. Yang Zhongming is Erlang Shen. Coincidentally, Erlang Shen is named Yang Jian, which suggests a connection with Father Yang.

These two characters didn't have a clear outcome in the novel, but those who have watched 'Journey to the West' know that Sun Wukong eventually lost to Erlang Shen because the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, seeing a stalemate between Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen, attacked Sun Wukong with the Vajra Bangle, causing the monkey to be captured..."

Huh?

The netizens were bewildered at first, but then they thought the interpretation made sense.

Xian Yu and Yang Zhongming, like Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen, were evenly matched in their contest...

But finally, the officials came to help Yang Zhongming, causing Xian Yu to fail.

From this perspective, the behavior of the officials is exactly the same as that of the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord!

Not to mention...

The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord belongs to the Heavenly Court, the highest authority in the 'Journey to the West' world.

While the Literature and Art Association belongs to the officials, it is also part of the highest authority of Blue Star.

"This is pretty mystical!"

"So, did Zheng Jing foresee everything?"

"Zheng Jing is awesome!"

"The battle between Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen, it's not just about their stalemate, but it's also a metaphor for how the authorities, like the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, will help Yang Zhongming to ambush Xian Yu!"

"For this, I'm willing to call Mother Zheng the strongest!"

"Mother Zheng: Everything is under control."

"Mother Zheng has already told us the outcome, it's just that we didn't realize it, and we even referred to Father Yang as the Buddha. This has nothing to do with the Buddha."

"..."

The netizens were thrilled!

Everyone knew it was just a coincidence.

But such coincidences are rare, so everyone was taking it seriously and discussing it.

For a while, it was a popular trend.

Some even seriously posted about it in their circle of friends.

Many netizens who hadn't watched 'Journey to the West' were at a loss:

What battle between Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen?

What about the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord's sneak attack with the Vajra Bangle?

Fine then.

This round is not a loss for Xian Yu either.

The drama 'Journey to the West', for which he was the screenwriter, also gained endless publicity through this unusual battle.

When Zheng Jing saw the comments in her section, she was dumbfounded.

Especially when Zheng Jing saw that everyone was saying that the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord's sneak attack on Sun Wukong with the Vajra Bangle was identical to the official's sneak attack on Xian Yu--

"Zheng Jing, you have a golden mouth!"

"Zheng Jing, the prophet, is confirmed!"

"I'm going to knife you tonight!"

"Give up and quit, it's boring."

"And you said you're not a prophet!"

"..."

Zheng Jing: ???

For a moment, even Zheng Jing herself doubted whether she had jinxed it.

Did things actually turn out this way?

However, Lin Yuan accepted the result calmly.

Although he didn't get a fair result with Yang Zhongming, the stalemate over such a long period of time showed that in some sense, the two songs were not much different.

There will be other opportunities to compete in the future.

When Lin Yuan just saw the official's promotion of 'Blue Star', he also had a feeling of karma and retribution.

Right.

Sun Wukong later encountered eighty-one hardships and ultimately obtained the Scripture--

Did the Scripture have something to do with "Zheng Jing"?

Lin Yuan suddenly felt like he was also babbling.

He shook his head.

Lin Yuan decided to believe in science.

Rather than saying the Scripture has something to do with "Zheng Jing", it's better to say:

The 108,000-mile journey to the West that Sun Wukong and his companions had to undergo, signals the difficulties I will face next year in my challenge to Maestro.

ps: The reason for writing about the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord's ambush and the confrontation between the protagonist and Father Yang being like Sun Wukong battling Erlang Shen was hinted at before.
